Prior to delivery of the first payload, Raytheon completed a series of assessments including thermal vacuum testing. Thermal vacuum testing exposes the payload to a space-like environment and validates digital models to ensure the sensor meets design requirements. The second sensor payload is more than 60 percent completed and is scheduled to start thermal vacuum testing in early 2025.RTX's Raytheon Delivered Its First Sensor Payload To Prime Contractor Lockheed Martin, Keeping The U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command's First Next-Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared, Or Next-Gen OPIR GEO Block 0 Missile Warning Satellite On Track For A 2025 Initial Launch Capability

EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Raytheon, an RTX (NYSE:RTX) business, delivered its first sensor payload to prime contractor Lockheed Martin, keeping the U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command's first Next-Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared, or Next-Gen OPIR, Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO) Block 0 missile warning satellite on track for a 2025 initial launch capability.
加利福尼亞州埃爾塞貢多，2024年9月30日 /PRNewswire/ — RTX（紐約證券交易所代碼：RTX）旗下的雷神向主承包商洛克希德·馬丁公司交付了其第一枚傳感器有效載荷，使美國太空部隊太空系統司令部的第一顆下一代高架永久紅外線或下一代OPIR地球同步軌道（GEO）Block 0導彈警報衛星步入2025年的初始發射能力。
Designed to improve missile warning resilience and performance, two Next-Gen OPIR GEO satellites will eventually provide continuous coverage over mid-latitudes to the existing constellation. Raytheon is designing and building sensor payloads for both satellites.
兩顆下一代OPIR GEO衛星旨在提高導彈預警彈性和性能，最終將爲現有星座提供中緯度的持續覆蓋。雷神正在爲這兩顆衛星設計和建造傳感器有效載荷。

在交付第一批有效載荷之前，雷神完成了一系列評估，包括熱真空測試。熱真空測試將有效載荷暴露在類似太空的環境中，並驗證數字模型以確保傳感器符合設計要求。第二個傳感器有效載荷已完成60％以上，計劃於2025年初開始熱真空測試。
